  So-called marshmallows are foamed confectionery that is formed and solidified by mixing dough mixed with saccharides such as sugar and gelatin, and has a unique soft and soft elasticity. However, if the marshmallow is made into a small lump, it can be obtained by itself or by integrating it with chocolate or other products that have a different texture compared to conventional products. Can be expected.

  Therefore, it must be suitable for mass production. In order to handle marshmallows as mass-produced products, the dough was cut into noodles using the cutting device shown in the above document (so-called noodles linear) After obtaining the product, in order to cut the noodle linear product into small chunks), the dough (marshmallow) elasticity and stickiness (due to saccharides) adheres to the groove that is the cutting blade and the noodle linear I couldn't get anything.

The present invention has been devised to provide an apparatus capable of cutting a noodle strip marshmallow into a noodle strip shape under such a normal situation.

The noodle string-shaped round blades are arranged side by side, and the downstream rotation adjacent to the upstream rotation support shaft with respect to each of the upstream rotation support shafts in the transport direction is performed. Each of the round blades corresponding to each of the round blades of the support shaft is arranged at an appropriate separation distance on one end side of the axis of the rotation support shaft.

According to the present invention, when the noodle strip marshmallow placed and transported on the transport belt reaches the rotating support shaft on the upstream side in the transport direction, it is cut by the round blade pivotally supported on the rotating support shaft. The part divided by the notch becomes a noodle string shape and reaches the remaining part and the next rotation support shaft, and the rotation support shaft is appropriately positioned with the position of the previous rotation support shaft. Since the round blade is installed at a distance, the remaining portion is cut by the round blade, and the next rotating support is used as the noodle filament adjacent to the preceding noodle filament. Easy to process from noodle strips to noodle strips, such as being transported to the shaft, and then transported to the rotating pivot shaft of the next stage together with the remaining part of the second stage noodle strands. And it can be done reliably. That is, according to the present invention, the round blade of the rear pivot shaft is shifted to one end along the axis of the pivot shaft with respect to the round blade provided on the former pivot shaft. Therefore, the shifted distance width can be the width of the noodle filaments cut out by the front and rear round blades, and the noodle strands are not narrowed by the front and rear round blades. The noodle strings can be easily and reliably obtained from the noodle strips without being attached to the round blade during the operation.
